The British tourists rate Bulgaria before Italy

Bulgaria surprisingly jumped before Italy and Criatoa in popularity among the British tourists. Bulgaria holds 8th place in the top 10 tourist destinations for the English, rated by the internet company Holidays Direct.

Number one in this chart is Turkey, the results are based on requests for holidays during the last 6 months. Last year favorite of the British tourist was Spain.

The success of Bulgaria is explained by the boom of the real estate market, the renovation of the hotels and the cheap air flights. Our south neighbor is liked because of the interest of the British tourists to more unfamiliar destinations, outside the EU where they can get a better value for their money.
